Yes...Everyone did stop writing. There is nothing wrong with the List or the software that runs it! It is holiday time here in the US, but perhaps not in Japan? I am not sure whether Christmas is celebrated in Japan or not...but here, this is a stressful and busy time. I will be blessed with guests from Brazil the day after Christmas...December 26th. Antonio Carlos da Rocha Costa has spearheaded the computerization of SignWriting in Brazil, working with the SignNet Project, and developing SWML (SignWriting Markup Language)...which will lay the groundwork for other computer programmers to develop their own software using SignWriting. So you can imagine my surprise and pleasure, when I learned that Antonio Carlos is coming to ask me technical questions about SWML....Remember the lists of symbols I started preparing back in October, comparing the symbols used in 1995 with the symbols used in 1999? You can look at those "Symbol Lists" on the web anytime: SymbolBank https://www.SignBank.org/symbolbank/symbolbank.html Well....I never finished all the Symbol Lists...there are around five more databases to be done, so I am trying to complete that work by December 26th, when our guests arrive!! That is why I have not been writing to the List lately (grin ;-).... I want to wish everyone a wonderful holiday, and a very special New Year celebration!! And many blessings for year 2001...I look forward to working with all of you in the New Year!! -- Val ;-> ----------------------------- Valerie Sutton SignWritingSite: https://www.SignWriting.org SignWriting List Archives: https://www.egroups.com/group/sw-l To post a message to the SW List: To manage your SW List email: for No Mail: SET SW-L NOMAIL for Digest Mail: SET SW-L DIGEST for Regular Mail: SET SW-L MAIL for Member List: REVIEW SW-L by NAME to Leave SW List: SIGNOFF SW-L to Join SW List: SUB SW-L firstname lastname | ||||||||
